Written by Michael Frayn, this three-act play will have you rolling in the aisles as it follows the cast and crew of "Nothing On" throughout their theatrical tour through America. "Nothing On" is a British sex farce that our talented group of Americans try desperately to pull off with very little rehearsal.

As a member of the "Noises Off" audience, you will be privy to the behind the scenes action that the average theatergoer never gets to see-the drama of rehearsal, the tension of a running show and the utter despair that actors feel when things go awry. Don't miss the wild action of "Noises Off" or you may never know what actually goes on behind the scenes.

Many new faces join the theatre in this cast, as well as several veterans. The show is directed by newcomer Trey Stephens who, in true community theater tradition, will also play one of the roles in the show.

The phrase "noises off" is theatre jargon for a commotion offstage. But in "Noises Off," the commotion is onstage, created by a troupe of has-been and never-were actors touring in a British sex farce called Nothing On. Michael Frayn gives us a backstage - and onstage - peek at a show in which every actor's nightmare unfolds with uproarious results.
